The Governor is not here yet; bliz-

combination that has conspired to pro.
long the anxiety Of many a would be

There is one thing to be observed
in the matter of legislation, it crops
put in debates as Weelll az in the CHAR
acter OF the measures introduced and
that is the tendency to perpetuate the
distinction between the North and the
South the result of which is likely to
be SO far as appropriations. are con.
cerned, the leaving out in the cold,

it is now, Central Dakota - likely to

that wonderful area now called Cen,

against the further continuance Of

besides it must not be forgotten, that
the hooks and hands of steel and iron

Special Correspondence.

Bismarck, Feb. 1e, 1887.
The event of the week was the dis.
cussion in the council on the bill pro.
viding for a special election III June
on the question of the territory on the
7th standard parallel, When the bill
was introduced it was thought that it
would pass without much Opposition.
It sounded fair, The submission of
the question to a vote 81, the people
seemed just and ''statesmanlyi and all
pr!edicted that the bill would go
through both houses and especially
through the council vsii>thouta very
serious conflict. But when II came
up for discussion yesterday It was bit,
terly opposed and the livliest orator
ical battle Of the session was the re.
suit, The champions of the bill were
Messrs, Cain Of Huron, Smith of
Yankton, Mathews Of Brookings and
Wells Of Rapid City. Those who op-
posed it we're M[essrs,' Dodge of James
town, Hughes Of Bismarck, Galloway
Of Fargo, Campbell of Aberdeen,
Donovan of Pembina and McCumber
Of Wahpeton, These were the lead.
ers in the discussion and near the
close of the arguments Mr. Grigsby OF
SIOUX Falls. made a speech which, al.
though be j. a diyisionist created a
GOODNESS between. himself and Mr..
